Re: TROLLSLUM: A Fantroll Database

I- I've been lurking for a bit, and I've never screwed up the courage to post here. But trollplaying seems more fun than the majority of fandom stuff (I'm not really a big fanplaying person) and despite my uncertainty, I'm kicking myself into doing this.

I'm not exactly asking to be added to the list yet, though. As you can see, there are a couple of things I'm not sure about yet. @w@ She's not 100% developed in general, and I was hoping some RP would get her on that track. I was also hoping someone could offer some advice. Symbol and typing quirk have been difficult to pin down (her symbol is a heart in the pic, but I decided to change it after the significance of the heart to trolls came out, and I've yet to really come up with anything else- spent all night browsing heiroglyphs, runes, alchemical and astrological symbols x _x). I'm sort of considering the alchemical symbol for wax or purification, but I dunno...

And the typing quirk has evaded me the entire time. I just can't think of something that's really her. =/ Considering perhaps triple punctuation or always having an ellipsis at the end (so ending everything with either ..., ...!, or ...?) and/or encasing all text in parentheses. Baaah, I just don't know if it's enough. Got the typing quirk.

Name: Nedari Pygmai
chumHandle: syntheticDebutante
Text color:sweet plum (#660066)
Typing quirk: uses ellipses a lot, ending every sentence with either "..." or "...?" or "...!" ( more punctuation is possible, such as ...!!!!!, but there will always be an ellipses), and doesn't use contractions (if that counts xD)
Shirt symbol: to be determined
Sylladex: Memory
Strife Specibus: normally fankind, but she has a flailkind she pulls out when she craves that satisfyingly sickening crunch
Other refs: quick doodle... I forgot the horns >_>better doodle, horn experimentation
Lusus: Unipuff, a small, rotund, unicorn-like creature which is rather vicious despite her apperance
Matesprit: yes
Kismesis: occasionally the same dude as the matesprit, probably, but no fulltime kismesis
Auspistice: none for now (... might kind of need one at some point)
Morail: none
Personality (full intro under there):

Your name is NEDARI PYGMA.

You thoroughly enjoy the company of TROLLMAID DOLLS. Their large, sparkling eyes peer down from most every surface of your room, which is generally considered by others to be CREEPY AS HELL. You think they are charming. They are the utmost example of GIRLISH COQUETRY, one you strive to emulate. You are often found preparing HOMEMADE BAKED GOODS and FRESHLY-BREWED TEA in preparation for QUAINT CELEBRATIONS. Few can figure out why you like these things, and you're not quite sure either, but that's okay.

Unfortunately, real world social encounters tend to fill you with NEAR-PARALYZING TERROR. To counteract this, you funnel your anxiety into being EERILY POLITE. This is not a perfect solution as you are somewhat prone to SPAZZING. You find it much easier to communicate ONLINE, but sometimes you still get flustered.

You often participate in ROLEPLAYING. You prefer the FRIENDLY online sort, especially as it does not necessitate physical encounters, but you have found a group you are comfortable enough with to venture out for a round of EXTREME play every now and again. You find it nice to occasionally drop the façade of REFINED INNOCENCE and just SMASH THINGS (which is probably more socially acceptable anyway).

Hello everyone! blacksheepDaydreamer and I were messing around in a chatroom and we decided to work on getting her troll into the medium, and we kind of created something epic. For one thing, it involves discussions of Karkat blackrom slashfic.

Oh man, Red Pen, that is sweet.

Thanks. I think your troll is pretty cute too. For her typing quirk I like the idea of always ending things with an ellipsis. Makes her sound more quiet and hesitant, since you said she doesn't like being around people? Maybe you could do zero capitalization too, like...

Your trolltag is syntheticDebutante, and you tend to be rather hesitant around people...

(Oh, and Doctor Tess, me and blacksheepDaydreamer have officially started a Server --> Client chain, for whenever you're updating the list.)

Re: TROLLSLUM: A Fantroll Database

As said before me, Red Pen, you rock.

Also, typing quirks, a good way to find one that fits is to try and imagine how your troll would aktually talk. The example Red gave there is a good eksample, as is how CR types. This kan be seen again in Homestuk with kharakters like Soluks.

Alternativley, there are those that do a play on things, similar to how MK talks. His typing quirk evolved from me trying to figure out a trolltag that fit the letters MK and related to arthropods somehow. I kame up with karapase and simply shanged the spelling to make it work. I liked the effekt so I rolled with it. This kan be seen in kannon with kharakters like Ekwius.

Re: TROLLSLUM: A Fantroll Database

Thanks for the suggestions!

Red Pen- Good point. She is softspoken. I'm leaning toward the ellipsis route more and more. No capitalization might be a possibility as well, but I'm not sure.

mediokreKarapase- I would have done that, but the problem is mostly that I don't think there's anything that really stands out about the way she talks, nothing that would necessitate changing letters or anything. I do know that she usually speaks formally and almost never uses contractions (just on the occasion that I forget she doesn't use contractions :P). If there were something more characteristic about her voice, it wouldn't be quite so hard. xD

Aaand here she is looking rather sad about one thing or another. Experimenting with horn type...

SD : Oh... hello...
SD : I... have been fine, I suppose...
SD : Things have been... interesting... lately...
SD : But it is of no import...

(Yay! Got it, I think. :,D Also updated her profile with a sentence or two I forgot I added to my word doc. Oh, do you know if there's a way to disable smilies in a post? Otherwise I'll have to put spaces in like that. xD

By the way, I also use the Pesterchum application, so I'm up for playing with people over that, too. *goes to edit that into Nedari's profile*)
